other trading within the city limits.
| The board listened to an interesting
speech from Judge Wales on the market
building and market day, in which he
stated that when the land was sold to the
city it was distinctly understood and
specifically stated, by the seller, verbally
that the land was sold for what it cost or
the understanding that it was to be for

THE AMERICAN INSTITUTE.
Buriington's Efforts Approximation to
Blame for the weather"
Now Enplnnd .Iournnl nf Eduoationl


New England Journal of EducationJ
Burlington did herself grand in her re
ception to the educators of New England,
and every appointment was first-class.
They were not responsible for the wealth
er, and no one could blame teachers for
preferring the cool shade of the lawns
and the airy apartments of the hotel to
the opera house but despite the weather
the meetings were marked by u good
spirit, and some of the wisest and best
thoughts upon educational matters found
expression. The best of feeling prevailed,
and President Halls administration of
affairs was Endorsed by a hearty and unanl,
nous reelection. 1t is hardly to be hoped
That any other New England city will do
as much by way of reception courtesies as
Burlington, whose publc-spirited citl-
Zens. lay and official, spared no pains in
providing not only comfort but Injuries
even, for their guests. IL is Il not altogeth-
er mplimentary fact that the fraternity
marshalS a much larger force when a
popular resort like Fabyan's, Newport, or
Bar Harhor invites, than when city like
Burlington, a city Of classic culture, social
heartiness and professional zeal invites.
After a hard years work the teacher is
pardonable, perhaps. If she seeks the
mountains or The sea. President Hall had
done most excellent preparatory work,
and his administrative skill in presiding
was as marked as II had been in the max
ing of II programme and in the railroad
ARRANGEMENTS rhole who remember the
rush and push, the hurry and worry of
Bar Harbor, have only words OF praise
for the faultess preparations and cordial
reception at Burlington.
